How does this mat encourage kids’ psychomotor development?
It enables kids to have enough sensory redundancy to boost their proprioception.
Proprioception is necessary to meet major milestones in psychomotor development.
This mat allows them to safely do these movements. In this way, this stimulating mat helps develop kids’ psychomotor development.
This product has been approved by a physiotherapist.
Stepping stones to dynamic balance
Kids under the age of 4 must learn how to control their body and move in any given direction by slowly waddling forward on 2 feet.
At 4 years old, kids can walk, putting one foot in front of the other, on a path measuring one and a half times the width of their feet.
At 6 years old, kids can walk with one foot directly in front of the other, heel to toe, on a path as wide as their foot.
Psychomotor development:
Kids’ psychomotor development is dependent on genetic, motor, and psychological factors.
A product can impact their psychomotor development if it targets their motor development.
Motor development has several major components: body schema, dynamic coordination, balance, hand-eye coordination, fine motor skills, and time and space awareness.
Body schema
The body schema is a representation of how kids view their bodies. It gives them refined control of their movements, a perception of their body, and, more generally, self-awareness. It is built around experiences and actions (“body feels, body moves”) before being represented and discussed (“body represented,” draw-a-person test).
Every time kids move, they refine their body schema and increase their chances of moving better in the future.
Hand-eye coordination
Hand-eye coordination includes the actions that help us aim with all or part of their body. Youngsters develop this skill by mapping a path and then using their hands and feet to aim large objects at large targets. Then the objects and targets get smaller and smaller until they have excellent finger isolation: piano-playing, beading, writing.
Time and space awareness
Time and space awareness includes everything that marks a kid’s place in time (before/after, rhythmic activities, day/night, season, etc.) and space (front/behind, over/under, right/left, etc.).
